How to get a custom Cape
[Made by: Kink]
Hello XboxMB, I have recently been doing some Minecraft client modding and I figured I’d share this easy way to get yourself a sexy cape to wear around online, I found this myself editing with the different files…I’m not sure if it has been posted before but this is my go at it.
What you need:
- Clean .Minecraft folder
- Cape design (Edited by me,
(Right Click > Save Image As)) - Java JDK (Download Here)
- MCP(Minecraft Coder Pack, Download Here)
- Minecraft Server Jar (Download Here)
Note: You can edit the cape in paint at 100% zoom.
Tutorial:
1.) You’re going to want to start by downloading all the files I have stated above, extract and install them if needed to do so.
2.) Open the folder you extracted the Minecraft Coder Pack into. Now navigate to Start > Run > %appdata% > .Minecraft and continue to right click and copy the folder “bin” paste this into the folder “jars” in the Minecraft Coder Pack folder you have open, now copy the folder “resources” in .Minecraft, again paste this into “jars”.
3.) Locate the Minecraft_Server.jar file you have downloaded and place that in “jars” in the Minecraft Coder Pack folder. Now, continue by running the “decompile.bat” file and it will decompile your minecraft files, once this process has completed it should give you tell you to press any key to continue, do so.
4.) Navigate to “src” > “minecraft” > “net” > “minecraft” > “src” now locate the file “EntityPlayer.class” you’re going to want to open this in a text editor (I will be using regular notepad), while in notepad…go to Edit > Find and in the textbox enter “UpdateCloak” it will now take you to the coding for whether or not you have a cape.
5.) Now, take your edited minecraft skin and upload it to a direct image uploading site such as imgur: the simple image sharer and upload your skin. You’re now going to replace the code:
("http://s3.amazonaws.com/MinecraftCloaks/").append(username).append(".png")
With:
public void updateCloak()
{
playerCloakUrl = (new StringBuilder()).append("http://IMGLINKHERE.COM").toString();
cloakUrl = playerCloakUrl;
}
Where it says “IMGLINKHERE.COM” you’re going to want to put your direct image link that your cape is located at.
6.) Go to File > Save and close the notepad. Go back to the main folder of Minecraft Coder Pack and run the bat file “recompile.bat”, let that run and close when it says “press any key to continue” now run “reobfuscate.bat” and again, let that run until it tells you to continue. Once you have ran both of those, continue by heading into the “reobf” folder under the Minecraft Coder Pack folder now go into “Minecraft” and there should be a file named “gs.class”, now head back into your .Minecraft folder.
7.) Go into the “bin” folder and right click the “minecraft.jar” and open that in WinRAR, delete the “META-INF” folder…now drag the “gs.class” into the “minecraft.jar” file and press “OK” when it asks. You can now close all all files and run Minecraft, you will now have the cape you selected in multiplayer and single player you can check by pressing “F5” while in-game and going into 3rd person mode.
